Question

which is the correct definition of the latin root found in the first part of the word, ambidextrous? a \ambi\ means \both\ b \ambi\ means
either\ c \ambi\ means \left - sided\ d \ambi\ means
ight - sided\

Explanation:

The word "ambidextrous" refers to the ability to use both hands with equal skill. The Latin root "ambi" in this context means "both", as seen in other words like "ambiguous" (having both or multiple meanings) or "ambivalence" (having both positive and negative feelings). Options B, C, and D do not align with the meaning of "ambi" in "ambidextrous" since "neither", "left - sided", and "right - sided" don't fit the concept of using both hands.

Answer:

A. "ambi" means "both"
